Summoned to Another World as a Blind Swordsman

Riven Cross, a 19-year-old martial arts and kendo prodigy, was once destined for greatness—until a tragic accident at a national tournament took his sight. Though blinded, Riven’s spirit remained unbroken. With a kind heart, goofy charm, and quiet resilience, he adapted to life in darkness, no longer a champion, but still a fighter. That is, until fate intervened. While crossing a busy city street, Riven suddenly found his surroundings shifting. The honking of cars and chatter of crowds vanished, replaced by the rustling of leaves and the whispering winds of a forest. Time slowed. Confused, Riven was soon met by a forgotten goddess, who offered him a second chance—not just at sight, but at a new destiny. Bestowed with the powers of all elements and the heightened senses of a Blind Swordsman, Riven also receives a sentient katana—once the divine blade of the goddess herself. This legendary weapon becomes his guide, voice, and companion through a world unlike any he’s known. Thrown into a fantastical land of monsters, magic, corrupt nobles, ancient gods, and sprawling kingdoms, Riven’s journey begins. He joins adventurer guilds, conquers deadly dungeons, and challenges injustice wherever it lurks. His once-loner life draws in allies from all walks of life—commoners, royalty, demons, even gods—many of whom become part of his growing harem, drawn not just to his power, but to his kindness and courage. As battles rage and legends rise, the world comes to know him by a single name: The Blind Swordsman. With thrilling action, heartfelt romance, magical comedy, and epic adventure, Summoned to Another World as a Blind Swordsman tells the story of how one man without sight will come to be seen as the greatest swordsman in history.
